Flights to Vilanova de Arousa, Galicia from NT$2,272

Depending on where you're coming from, your trip to Vilanova de Arousa could be no sweat at all or it could go on forever. Below are some useful tips that will help you start your next great adventure on the right foot. What to pack in your hand luggage:

• Firstly, and most importantly, put in your passport, travel documents, wallet and daily medications. Next, you'll want some in-flight entertainment to help pass the time. A juicy novel and a tablet filled with your favorite shows are good options. If you hope to catch a few z's, a comfy neck pillow and some noise-canceling headphones will also be useful. Finally, find room for a toothbrush and some facial wipes to ensure you arrive feeling fresh as a daisy.

Do not pack the following items in your hand luggage:

• Leave all your full-sized bottles of shampoo and hairspray in your checked baggage. Any gels or liquids in your carry-on suitcase larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) will be confiscated by authorities. Pointed or sharp objects, like a pocket knife, and dangerous products which are explosive or flammable, such as aerosol cans, spray paint and poisons, are also banned.

What to wear on a flight:

• Comfort should be your main concern when deciding what to wear during your flight. Loose, breathable clothing is a smart option, as are flat, slightly roomy shoes.
• Deep vein thrombosis (DVT) can pose a risk on long-distance flights. It's the result of blood clotting due to inactivity and poor circulation, so do some gentle foot and leg exercises in your seat and consider wearing compression tights or socks.

Being organized before your flight can make your trip to Vilanova de Arousa a pleasure. We've rounded up some useful tips for a swift journey past security:

• Airport security personnel first need to know that you have a valid passport and matching boarding pass before you're allowed to proceed any further. Have them ready to show.
• Your belt, coat, keys and other items in your pocket, like your earphones, will be required to go through the X-ray machine. Make your life easier by removing them before your turn arrives.
• For just a few moments, you'll have to unplug from technology. Your tablet, phone and any other electronic gadgets will need to go through the scanner.
• Remember to remove liquids and gels from your carry-on luggage. They usually need to be sent through the X-ray scanner separately. Each item should be in a container no larger than 3.4 ounces (100 milliliters) and everything must fit inside a single quart-size (one liter), clear zip-lock bag.
• The right choice of footwear can save you several valuable minutes. Boots and bulky shoes are often required to be removed and separately scanned. Slip-on sneakers usually aren't.
• Avoid taking prohibited items in your carry-on bag. If you have any sharp or pointed objects, pack them in your checked baggage. They won't be allowed on board.
